I don't think its necessary to include the files, instead I'd like to test with a dataframe that you write out, these cases:

  • write with no header, read back with the specified names (like you are testing here)
  • write with a header, and use names (I think we replace with the names at this point)

xlsdf = read_excel(excel, header=None, names=['A', 'B'])
tm.assert_frame_equal(xlsdf, refdf)
